Warm water: promotes hydration and stimulates metabolism from the early morning hours. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism (Boschmann et al., 2003) showed that drinking about 500 ml of water can temporarily increase metabolism by up to 30%, helping the body burn more calories.
Raw Apple Cider Vinegar: Contains acetic acid, known for its ability to lower blood sugar levels and increase feelings of satiety. In a study conducted in Japan by Kondo (2009), participants who consumed apple cider vinegar daily showed a modest but significant reduction in body fat and weight.
Ginger has thermogenic properties, which means it stimulates heat production in the body, thereby promoting fat burning. It also aids digestion and can reduce nervous hunger. Research published in the journal Metabolism (Mansour, 2012) showed that consuming ginger increases satiety and energy expenditure at rest.
Lemon juice: Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, it boosts the immune system and aids digestion. Some studies suggest that vitamin C may help mobilize fat during exercise, while the acidity of the lemon may help regulate blood sugar spikes after meals.
